Clayton Echard Answers if He Slept with Shanae Ankney

Clayton Echard has received lots of criticism and backlash from the Bachelor Nation for keeping The Bachelor villain Shanae Ankney around much longer than needed.

And now he’s talking about the rumours about him and Shanae that are doing the rounds and just how ‘involved’ they really were on the show and off camera.

Clayton was asked a genuine fan question about a rumor that’s going around on Twitter and he had an answer.

“She’s gone now, and she didn’t go to fantasy suites,” Clayton said during an interview on “Chicks in the Office” podcast. “So, what does that say? I was never thinking about that. Never was, OK.”

Clayton later admitted that the rumour was “funny,” adding that whether or not he “banged Shanae” was a “fair question.”

“When you made those comments originally, and tweeting about it, I was like, ‘She’s clearly joking, right?’ Because I’m over here with the full story and I was like, that’s asinine,” he said.

He then addressed their heavy make outs!

“Listen, I don’t want to downplay kissing, but it’s kissing, alright,” he concluded.
